Olympic gold medallist to debut activewear range
Olympic gold medallist Kristi Yamaguchi is to launch a limited edition line of women’s activewear in September. The American figure skater's Tsu.ya range will be sold at selected Lord &Taylor stores and via the brand’s website.
The 18-piece range has been put together in collaboration with Montreal-based manufacturer Kersheh Group. It features functional yoga pants, leggings, jackets, T-shirts and tops.
Speaking about the collection, Ms Yamaguchi said: "My lifestyle is demanding. As a mother, as an author and as an athlete, the clothing that I wear needs to be functional as well as fashionable.
"Up until now there wasn’t an activewear line available to me that met those needs so I created Tsu.ya to fill the void.
"Moms like me know that our attire needs to live up to our standards and to our activities and Tsu.ya does just that; and with style."
